The weather station in my back garden is currently reading 39.4F after a high of 41.6F today.

I have a low of 25F forecast tonight, but the recent forecasts have been largely off. I don't think the low will drop below 34F, as we have quite a bit of cloud cover. I reckon they will be wrong for the 3rd consecutive night, predicting it to be far colder than it actually gets.

Most other neighborhood stations within 2 miles of the house running between 69-76F.. Pretty similar numbers across the rest of the valley also atm. Chandler muni, (per NWS station there) reading 67F. Looks to stay in the 60s- low 70s for awhile.. Maybe another dip into the 30s for a couple nights sometime next week. Nothing concerning though, for now at least. "In-accu"weather was trying to bring sub 30f lows into the forecast for nest Tues /Wed morning..

Remind me to be thankful that my record high is 105F. Wow mate, that is some hot weather you've been having.

I really feel sorry for our eastern states, the over night minimum in central NSW was 36c the night before last! They've been recording some very warm temps, 48c and above, very nasty. I'm currently sitting in the pool with a cold beer, it's helping.

I know they hit 41C at my cousins house in Joondalup. But I don't think my aunt and uncle saw hotter than 35C in Sorrento, along the coast.

I bet all the pot farms in the Mundaring forest have been hit hard by this hot, dry spell. They must have reached the mid 40s there today. Looks like even more dope shortages incoming for WA, as always

It has turned really cold in the UK now. It's only 8:30pm and already the temp has dropped down to -2.5C (27F) under clear skies. I'm praying some cloud cover roles in soon, otherwise I am going to be looking at my coldest night this winter. I can see it dropping right down to the low 20s, maybe 21-22F (-6C). Nearby London in comparison, probably won't drop below -1C (30F) tonight. Due to that urban heat island affect. Which I sadly do not benefit from.

January 20th 2019 first 8B temp of the winter local station reporting 18F. Will be staying up late monitoring the situation hoping to stay above 10...If any event is going to kill my unprotected palms it's this one.

6°F (-14°C) here, which is about our average annual low temperature. Yikes.

It’d be nice if this was it for the year, but we still have to trudge through February before we’re in the clear. On the bright side, it’s late January and our average temperatures have started to increase.
